At least last year you had a half shot at following the boxes. I actually did very well. As for the new game, this year...are they kidding...do they NOT want us to win?? They scramble the boxes so fast, I was dizzy watching!Anxious Oh well...isn't that nice and generous of HSNThink

On the other game, the box always ended up on the right. You really can't go by that anyway, whether or not you win is pre-determined before the boxes even start shuffling.

I agree with Balloongirl--the box was always on the right. I guess HSN has already pre-determined if it's our lucky day. I have played 3 times with no win. It would be nice to get some good coupons or $ this time of year.

I luckily got a 15% off coupon but not because I picked the right box. It was a "thank you for playing" thing. Hard to figure out these silly games. Most of the times the winning box has been in the middle, at least for me, when they reveal it.

I'm sorry. I love HSN but I'm not overly fond of the games. At least with the last one, you had somewhat of a chance. This new one is next to impossible to win anything. How about giving us a game that we, (LOYAL CUSTOMERS) can actually have a shot at to kind of give back to us for buying so much, ya knowBrick wall

I love the fact that HSN gives us games to play for chances to win something. I have not won anything yet with this new game, but I have to admit that it makes me laugh every time I play!! It goes so fast I nearly fall off my chair!! The game get a Applause for putting a smile on my face, but a Brick wall for not winning anything (yet).

I've won four so far two 15% off and one 20% off as well as a free shipping. Not from choosing the right box but as a thank you. The last game I won a few too in the beginning but then later nothing.

I haven't really purchased much from HSN in the last year so maybe those who don't or haven't shopped often win a few at first to promote purhcases. Its working because since these are good for event items I will be using them today. Winking

I agree with VANILLASPICE 100% plus!!!!! Applause

This game is silly, with the boxes moving so fast, I don't see how anyone could win a prize. Brick wall d'oh!

agree with *can we shop*
This game is just another one in a long line rip offs.
I am sick of giving them my friends names so they can solicit them for sales but I never even get free S&H for this info.
I am done.
I was going to order a few of the Davids Cookies items to send to my family for Thanksgiving but now..I am not doing so..I

The winning box was usually in the middle so now I only pick the middle and ITS NEVER in there now. Fixed????? I think so!
Stingy with coupons...absolutely!!!
Somedays it allows me to give friends names and other days it doesn't.
Another messed up game from HSN...

Why do they need my complete address in order for me to play their silly game? I almost didn't do it, being afraid they would share my information. Do you think they do?

It was seem more appropriate for HSN to send coupons off via email or snail mail. Then everyone would have a chance and they wouldn't have to have these silly games.

I got a 15% off coupon that said it COULD be used on sales and specially-priced stuff, but when I tried it, it said I couldn't. I went back to look, and sure enough - it does say it can be used on sale stuff!! Brick wall Shame on you d'oh!

That happened to me too. Did the items say sale or clearance. It only works on items that say Sale or Event price. It won't work on items that say clearance. If you ask me sale adn clearance are the same thing but HSN doesn't think so. d'oh! Brick wall

My computer always glitches when the boxes start moving, so it's like they freeze in the middle of it and then all of a sudden they are done moving, asking me to pick the winner. Huh? Very much hard to win. They gave me a coupon that I haven't used yet when I didn't win though. lol

Not talking I to find the game this year almost impossible to win the boxes move way to fast to even try to follow it does make you dizzy.....the games in the past years were easier, with that being said. Since they started these games I have never once won a gift card, the most I ever won was either free S&H... 10% 15% or 20% off next purchase, but then was limited to what items they could be used on....Think about it how much are you actually winning that way...all in all it is a way for us to buy more and when I added up all my free S&H and my % off purchases I may have saved about $100. during the run of the game... to me the free S&H is worth more cause it can be used on any item....
Think maybe there is a glitch in this years game.....has any1 contacted HSN about it? would be interested in what they have to say....I may give them a call just to find out.....ya never know it could be a glitch
